The LCM of 253,187,471,552 is 16206168.
Find LCM of 253,187,471,552 with Prime Factorization
| 3 | 253, 187, 471, 552 |
| 11 | 253, 187, 157, 184 |
| 23 | 23, 17, 157, 184 |
| 1, 17, 157, 8 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
3 x 11 x 23 x 1 x 17 x 157 x 8 = 16206168
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 253,187,471,552 is 16206168.
LCM formula is LCM(a1, a2, an) = (a1 x a2 x an)/{GCF(a1 x a2 x an) x common factors}
Firstly, we have to find the product of all the numbers.
253 x 187 x 471 x 552 = 12300481512
Then, let us find the GCF of these five numbers. To do so, we have to list down the factors for each number and choose the highest factor that is in all of the lists.
253 : 1, 11, 23, 253
187 : 1, 11, 17, 187
471 : 1, 3, 157, 471
552 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 23, 24, 46, 69, 92, 138, 184, 276, 552
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 253,187,471,552, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
253:11x 23
187:11x 17
471:3x 157
552:2x 2x 2x 3x 23
From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.
3x 11x 23 = 759
Therefore, the value for common factors is 759.
Now that we have all the elements of the formula, we can plug them in to calculate the LCM.
LCM(a1, a2, an) = (a1 x a2 x an)/{GCF(a1 x a2 x an) x common factors}
LCM = 12300481512/(1x759)
LCM = 12300481512/759
LCM = 16206168
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 253,187,471,552 is 16206168.
